After Aldarion spent a lonely night in a bedchamber separate from his wife he arose early and departed from the house. Riding to his cousin's Hallatan's house he witnessed the gladsome homecoming party that Ulbar's wife was giving him, dancing with him in her happiness. When Ulbar's son Îbal asked how old one had to be to go to sea Aldarion gave him a bitter answer but gave Ulbar's wife a ring with a fiery red jewel that King Gil-galad had given him.[1]
